Chapter 48: All or Nothing

The next day, the army assembled at the entrance of the village.

Lu Yao stood in front of the army, bowed his hand to Zhao Yun, and said loudly: "Zilong, please do everything." ”

"Lord ......" Zhao Yun hesitated, turned his head and looked at Ding Yan behind him. Helplessly, the latter old god was there, his eyes were slightly closed, and he sat on the horse as if he was a fugue, and he didn't see his slightly anxious eyes at all.

Zhao Yun had no choice but to turn over and dismount, strode in front of Lu Yao, and said in an anxious voice: "Lord, let's stay with the last general." ”

"Needless to say, I've made up my mind." Lu Yao shook his head categorically and refused.

"But......" Zhao Yun looked anxious.

"I've made up my mind." Lu Yao smiled faintly, raised his hand and blocked the back half of Zhao Yun's words.

Zhao Yun couldn't, so he had to return to Ding Yanma. Without waiting for him to speak, Ding Yan suddenly opened his eyes, and said with a faint smile: "General Zilong doesn't have to worry. The lord has already made up his mind. You and I can just do what we are told. ”

Since subduing Ding Yan, all the internal affairs of Xanadu Village have been handed over to him by Lu Yao. Although Lu Yao did not give Ding Yan a public position, in Zhao Yun's heart, Ding Yan was a military advisor. Since the military advisor was so determined, Zhao Yun had no choice but to take the order, turn over his horse again, and ride his horse to the front of the army.

This expedition, Lu Yao has made a desperate bet. Zhao Yun commanded one hundred cavalry as the main general. Ding Yan commanded 100 Pu Dao soldiers and temporarily served as a military division. Li Daniu only had fifty Pu sword soldiers under his command. Lu Yao simply filled him with all the reserves he had just recruited, reaching a hundred troops. A total of three hundred troops went on the expedition.

As a result, there were only one hundred archers left in Xanadu Village, and Cai Yan's fifty archers, a total of one hundred and fifty troops left in Xanadu Village.

The Intermediate Rogue Battalion refreshes fifty Rogue Bandits every day, plus the Rogue Bandits refreshed in the wild, although it has only been a day, the number of Rogue Bandits is almost as large as half of the troops left behind in Xanadu Village. Lu Yao's level is not high, and his four-dimensional attributes are far inferior to those of third-rate celebrities. Even though Cai Yan's four-dimensional attributes are comparable to second-rate famous generals, she is a talented woman, how can she know how to do military affairs. It can be said that Xanadu Village carried out this expedition, and its defense power dropped directly to the freezing point. No wonder Zhao Yun was anxious.

"Zilong, Gongyu." Lu Yao gave it away.

"The last will be ordered." Zhao Yun surrendered his hand and agreed, and at the same time lowered his voice and said: "Gongyu, it is better to persuade the lord to stay with Li Daniu." ”

"No, this expedition is outnumbered. If Li Daniu is left behind, with only the strength of you and me, it is tantamount to using a mantis arm as a car. Life is small, and the master's plan is wrong, how can you and I afford it. Ding Yan flatly refused.

Zhao Yun had no choice but to give up. Indeed, the total number of troops on his side is only 300. However, according to the situation personally investigated two days ago, the other side has at least 2,000 troops, and it is still increasing its troops. In a few days, it is not illusory that the difference between the strength of the enemy and us will be more than ten times. is already stretched, and pumping out troops is tantamount to giving people heads.

"Have a nice trip." Lu Yao ordered loudly.

"Let's go." Zhao Yun had a bitter face, but he still ordered the whole army to pull out.

With an order, a hundred cavalry took the lead in following Zhao Yun and setting off. Ding Yan commanded a hundred Pu sword soldiers to follow. Li Daniu led a hundred Pu sword soldiers to escort the conscripted 300 people to escort 100 carts of grain, grass and baggage.

Lu Yao watched the army go away, and smiled bitterly in his heart.

In ancient warfare, logistical baggage was always a big problem. Generally speaking, each soldier needs at least two civilian soldiers to provide logistics to ensure a smooth expedition. The expedition totaled 300 troops, and it stands to reason that 600 civilians should be needed to ensure logistical worries. Helplessly, there are all kinds of brilliance on the surface of Xanadu Village, but in fact, it is already the limit to extract 300 people at once. This is the answer that Ding Yan gave after staying up all night. Transferring more people will affect the development of the territory.

But he had no other way but to go on this expedition.

Three hundred kilometers is a considerable distance. For Xanadu Village, this distance can be called nerve-wracking, and at most it can only guarantee logistics. But for those with national backgrounds, this is not far away. Gathering the power of dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of players, launching an expedition is as simple as going out shopping.

It can be said that the other party sits firmly on the Diaoyutai and fights if he wants, and he doesn't fight if he doesn't want to. But he couldn't.

Xanadu Village currently has only 400 troops. And if the opponent only has ten players, as long as each player provides ten soldiers, it is a hundred troops. If it's a hundred players, that's a thousand troops. If there were a thousand players, that would be a terrifying 10,000 troops.

This force is tantamount to a catastrophe for Xanadu Village, and no matter how reckless the army is, it is far from enough. But this force is not even a wound to others. Even if you don't use any strategy, you can kill Xanadu Village just by relying on the number of people.

He had nothing to stop except to send troops first and try to keep the enemy out of the country.

After sending the army away, Lu Yao turned around and saw Cai Yan following behind him, and he couldn't help but feel a little more guilty. Speaking of which, this talented woman can be regarded as a disaster, first unfortunately became the target of He Jin to show her muscles, and now she has to accompany herself to face a terrifying opponent. Calculate carefully, in another year or two, this big Lori should get on the sedan chair and marry the Wei family. But now, I'm afraid Wei Zhongdao won't be able to marry this talented woman.

"Miss Cai, you can teach and educate people with peace of mind." Lu Yao smiled, a little reluctantly.

This time it's all or nothing. If you don't succeed, you will succeed. It was the cadres who were determined and insisted on going their own way that led to this expedition. But there is no way, the pressure is huge, and I can only survive in death. If it fails, I am afraid that the fate of Cai Dacai will be even more tragic than in history.

The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds. There are more players, and there are all kinds of [perversions].

"The lord can call his subordinate Zhao Ji." Cai Yan Bingxue was smart, and she saw through Lu Yao's heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys at a glance, and said with a smile: "Although Zhao Ji is not familiar with military affairs, she is not useless. When her father was there, Zhao Ji had also read the military book and was willing to share the worries of the Lord. ”

Lu Yao was moved in his heart. Your sister's previous life was in vain. At that time, I couldn't ask for a famous general, but now I see, people's loyalty and properness.

"Lord, Miss He was born in Jiangmen, and she must be proficient in Wen Taowu. If you can solicit it, you can add a boost. Cai Yanqiao smiled and spoke again.

Lu Yao was stunned, and looked at Cai Dacai suspiciously. The latter looks serious. He couldn't help but laugh dumbly. This big Lori is giving He Jin eye medicine.

He didn't even think about recruiting He Mi. The Battle of the Yellow Turban Rebellion is about to start, and He Jin is about to enter the peak of his life and become a general. How could the daughter of General He take refuge in an Inhuman Lord. Even if He Miken and He Jin would never allow their beloved daughter to fall willingly for the sake of face, he would rather kill her than let her insult He's face. Cai Dacai's daughter Bing Xue is smart, how can she not see through the stakes. strongly recommended He Mi, thinking that it was also to retaliate against He Jin for giving her away.

"Really?" Lu Yao looked at Cai Yan meaningfully.

"Selfless." Cai Yan had a small face, and his voice was crisp and pleasant.

"Then I'll leave the matter to you. Don't let me down. Lu Yao smiled and left, the gloom in his heart was swept away, and his mood improved a lot.

Seeing Lu Yao walking towards the lord's mansion, Cai Dacai suddenly spit out her lilac tongue, her little face flushed, and she stomped her feet and said, "The lord is so annoying." ”
